Discreet wi-fi access points from Solwise

We all know the problem, you want Wi-Fi in every room of the home, but are
struggling to get coverage and also satisfy a requirement to not have ugly
cables and power supplies all over the place. Well Solwise who has been
supplying broadband hardware for many years may have come to the rescue with
some discreet in-the-wall access points.

They have two models available which apparently fit a standard back box, and
thus should be no more intrusive than a 13A socket. Both units utilise power
over Ethernet, meaning that all people need to is run Ethernet to the back of
each device.

The Solwise WL-SMART-INWALL sells at £33.01 (inc VAT) and a Pheenet
WL-3150P at £78.46 (inc VAT), with the more expensive device supporting
multiple SSID/VLAN and with support for a hotspot controller is more suited to
hotels and business premises.
